Consumers spent almost 10 hours daily with media devices in 2019. Let me guess what that number is in 2020? Umm, 24 hours?
If this year has proved anything, it’s that we can’t stay without technology if we want to work. It is no longer viable to just quit every social media app and think you’re safe from surveillance capitalism. We need technology to make our lives easier so that we can stay at home in the middle of the pandemic and work to the best of our abilities.
So even though ‘The Great Hack’ and ‘The Social Dilemma’ documentaries have made us more mindful and afraid, I cannot quit technology, none of us can. What we can do, however, is to be mindful of cybersecurity protocols to be in better control of our destinies.
Every business and every individual is at risk of a cyber-attack. One way for companies to avoid the threat of this risk is to make their employees aware through cybersecurity awareness. A great way to start is to implement basic cybersecurity training.
